Westbound lanes of I-70 to be closed at Manchester Trafficway for the weekend

Starting at 7 tonight, the westbound lanes of I-70 will be closed at Manchester Trafficway for the entire weekend for bridge repairs.

This section of highway, which carries about 85,000 vehicles a day, will not reopen until 5 a.m. Monday. Drivers, meanwhile, are advised to detour to westbound U.S. 40 and back to westbound I-70.

Access to I-70 from Manchester Trafficway also will be restricted this weekend. The ramp from Manchester Trafficway to westbound I-70 will be closed and so will both ramps from northbound and southbound I-435 to westbound I-70.
